Coordinated Medical Support at Home

The foundation of this partnership is seamless, in-home medical care. Rather than traveling to multiple clinics, residents can receive coordinated services right in their homes — from diagnostics to medication management.

Diagnostic Services — Catching Problems Early

Using mobile diagnostics provided by Target1 Medical, Dr. Cook is able to detect health issues before they escalate. Blood tests, urine analysis, and even portable imaging can all be performed during a house call. These services are especially valuable in communities where travel to city clinics can be time-consuming.

Medication Oversight — Reducing Risks

Older adults are often prescribed multiple medications, which increases the risk of adverse drug interactions. Dr. Cook’s team, supported by Target1 Medical’s pharmacy data tools, ensures each prescription is reviewed and aligned with the patient’s full health profile.

Preventive Care — Focused on 85262 Lifestyle

In areas like Pinnacle Canyon or Sincuidados, lifestyle plays a role in health planning. Heat stress, physical activity levels, and environmental allergens are factored into customized preventive strategies, including hydration guidance, respiratory health checks, and cardiovascular monitoring.

Why It Works in 85262

85262 has unique health challenges. High temperatures, geographic spread, and limited nearby emergency facilities make it critical to have at-home care options. According to AARP data, over 60% of adults aged 70+ prefer medical services to come to them — a preference matched by the services Dr. Cook and Target1 Medical deliver.

Planning Ahead: Limitations and Access
